Consider Woll Before You Open Ono of These Doors. “All tbe beauty and wonder of life lie In the choice we make and all the tragedy too.” Every moment of our Uvea some choice confronts us, and we are called upon to use our judgment, our experi ence, our faith, our self confidence, in making our decision. Going through life Is like traveling down a long corridor which constantly presents closed doors on either side- alternate doors—one of which we must open and pass through, irrevocably. We cannot make use of both doors, nor can we retrace our steps, nor even recon sider our choice, once the latch has been lifted. We must abide by our de cision. There are no exchanges. We must do ourconsidering before we choose, not after. And the choice once made, whether for good or 111, for bet ter or worse, we must pay the full price. This Is well expressed by an old Per sian proverb: “Take wbat you will,’ said the gods to mortals, ‘but pay for it.’ ” This world 1s like a great balance sheet, and tbe man has not been born who has found a way to tamper with the totals or to get around God. Life holds us inexorably to our accounting and carries out the final reckoning to the uttermost farthing.—From the Nau- tilus. The Arts of Asia. It was Asia, through Arabia, which gave Europe the literature, tbe arts and the sciences which we have devel oped and of which we now boast. Gun powder was probably Invented In China. It was certainly introduced into Europe from Arabia. The finely tem pered steel of Damascus went over from Arabia at tbe time of tbe Moorish invasion of Spain, and its manufacture was continued at Toledo. The copper smiths of Bagdad supplied the world’s market with their wonderful produc tions centuries before there were any industries In Europe. Weaving of silk and cotton bad its birth as an industry In Arabia, and the weaving of wool was learned by the crusaders In the same wonderful country. Astronomy, mathematica, the mariner’s compass— all came to us from the Arabs. Bacon and Eggs. Margaret is a th ree-year-old whose parents are fond of bacon and eggs, and Margaret has her share. One day In tbe country she beard for the first time a hen cackle. “Oh. mother." she exclaimed, "wbat does the hen say?” “Well,” her mother smiled, “I sup- pose she says she has laid an egg.” Margaret did not understand tbe simile, and after a moment's profound thought she came back again. “And what does she say. mother," she Inquired more seriously than be- fore—“what does she say when she lays bacon?”—W.
